I like them.
The fabric is a medium weight fabric. I decided to see if I could put them to task for the day. This morning, 4 mile walk and yoga. They haven’t rolled under in the stomach or rode up my legs. The pockets are small. At first I thought that was a waste of a pocket, but my phone fit in it snugly and the shorts did not move. Sometimes shorts will sag if you put a phone in a side pocket. These did not. The seams are flat lock, I am wondering if that’s why other reviews are mentioning calm toe. I had on a longer shirt. Lastly, I don’t think these are meant for all women’s bodies. I think I got lucky. Definitely try them on in store before you buy them.
Rides up with the first step
These are not my favorite. I am curvy and in the upper end of a size M, and these were semi-compressive as you’d want short tights to be. However, they rode up everywhere on my first run. May be good for just walks or weights instead.
camel camel camel
Something about the fit of these reminded me of the camel ride I took in Abu Dhabi a few years back (if you catch my drift). Moreover, they’re described as “high rise” but are about as high rise as Britney Spears jeans in 2001.
Decent Shorts
Nice bikers' shorts for the gym. The fabric is thicker, so it doesn't stick too much to private body parts, and I like the length too.
Material is scratchy
The material is a sensory nightmare. So scratchy and cheap feeling. Wore them once and couldn’t get over the material touching my body. Didn’t smell great after wearing either.
Good, but not perfect
I like the material, level of compression, and overall fit, but the side pockets are like juuuust a tad small to hold my phone, which is a bummer.
Rides up and uncomfortable
The shorts ride up easily which makes them instantly uncomfortable and awkward. The material is also scratchy. I can’t wait to get them off.
Workout Shorts
This fit well. I love the side pockets for my phone. I had no issues getting it over my hips. I love the feel of it.
Very comfortable
I'm a size 0 and the XS fits great without being too skimpy. The blue is a nice color. The fabric is neither too light nor too heavy.
